I recognise you now.
You are the ‘do you smoke’ guy.
Think the Jag one has the decent gearbox. Whatever L322 you choose test drive it first. Should run like on rails no wandering, brake like it’s got an anchor and pull like it’s made of feathers. Make sure all gears are smooth
One with lots of genuine looking receipts would be great, chains/vanos/gearbox replaced professionally ideal for higher miler

The 2.0 hdi/tdci engine à good unit, ask volvo and Peugeot. It can also be tuned and give around 170bhp but will chew a gearbox.
Ford are OK safe and straight forward but the same as everyone else's. Landys are different

A mate has had one for years with very few issues. Wheel bearings went at about 170k miles iirc. Bland and boring but plugs away.

Much as I love the Rangie it isn't reliable. Mondeo? Or big Volvo?

Wash your mouth out, I use mine every day. Volvo/Ford... Same things around the mid 00's. Ford actually made them more simple and dropped the stupid vacuum engine mounts and the double tensioner on the 2.4 tdi. The 16v 2.0tdci/hdi used in the smax and volvo v50 has the troublesome Sachs dual masse flywheel that goes sooner rather than later.
